Description

Sends a request to execute a prepared statement with given parameters,
without waiting for the result(s).

This is similar to pg_send_query_params(), but the command to be executed is specified
by naming a previously-prepared statement, instead of giving a query string. The
function's parameters are handled identically to pg_execute().
Like pg_execute(), it will not work on pre-7.4 versions of
PostgreSQL.

Parameters

connection

PostgreSQL database connection resource. When
connection is not present, the default connection
is used. The default connection is the last connection made by
pg_connect() or pg_pconnect().

stmtname

The name of the prepared statement to execute. if
"" is specified, then the unnamed statement is executed. The name must have
been previously prepared using pg_prepare(),
pg_send_prepare() or a PREPARE SQL
command.

params

An array of parameter values to substitute for the $1, $2, etc. placeholders
in the original prepared query string. The number of elements in the array
must match the number of placeholders.

Return Values

Returns TRUE on success, FALSE on failure. Use pg_get_result()
to determine the query result.

// Execute the prepared query. Note that it is not necessary to escape // the string "Joe's Widgets" in any wayif (!pg_connection_busy($dbconn)) {pg_send_execute($dbconn, "my_query", array("Joe's Widgets"));$res2 = pg_get_result($dbconn); }

// Execute the same prepared query, this time with a different parameterif (!pg_connection_busy($dbconn)) {pg_send_execute($dbconn, "my_query", array("Clothes Clothes Clothes"));$res3 = pg_get_result($dbconn); }
